Thanks for bringing this show to my attention Sarah. I don't own a TV so I really need someone to tell me if anything good is on so that I can track it down. I found out that the episodes are posted on youtube and I already watched episode 1. You are right, it is definitely not Project Runway quality. On the one hand, it seems like they are trying to distinguish the format from PR. So there are really awkward moments, like where the judges are deliberating just outside the studio, on foot, while the contestants are inside. On the other hand, I am surprised with the overall lack of sewing skills and creativity, but perhaps it will take some time for the contestants to shine. In any case, I like a good competition show so I will keep watching.
